Dear readers,
Tomorrow, Friday, is the day of Ashura. Fasting this day -if Allah accepts it- atones the sins of the year before. Fasting Friday alone is not prohibited if it is Ashura.
- Do not neglect fasting it due to a bad habit like smoking, and then miss the grand blessing of eternal bliss.
- Do not miss fasting it for any excuse like having an exam\ meeting\ special occasion. The prophet, may Allah's Peace and Blessings be upon him, was the head of a state, the leader of an army, a teacher for the people, facing the enemies' ploys, a provider for his family, a husband, a father and a nurturer. All this did not stop him from fasting these days and benefiting from these seasons.
- Sisters who have an excuse preventing them from fasting it: win the reward of fasting it by encouraging others to do so, as whoever guides (others) to an act of goodness, will have a reward similar to that of its doer.
- Do not neglect fasting it saying: "I fasted Arafa, and that forgives the year before and the year after, so I am still within that two-year period". What guarantees that Allah has accepted your previous fasting? Acceptance of fasting those days is bond by rules that must be met for the sins to be forgiven.
"...He aid, 'Surely Allah only accepts from those who are pious.'", and a from of piety is to glorify those days and seek their reward.
A number of scholars stated that committing major sins prevents the forgiving of sins on the days of Arafa and Ashura, supported by the Hadith:
"The five [daily] prayers, Friday to Friday and Ramadan to Ramadan make atonement for what has happened since the previous one when major sins have been avoided.”
One of the major sins that a lot of us are not aware of are those of the heart, like thinking ill of Allah, especially with the increase in temptations, atrocities and painful events in the Ummah and in ourselves, coupled with our a lack of understanding that this worldly life is one of trials, not of reward! So some start thinking ill of their Lord, and hate some of what Allah has decreed or instated.
Dear blessed reader, we are all in need of Allah's Mercy, thus do not miss this grand reward and these stations that Allah has placed as a mercy for us so that we cleanse our hearts and souls from their sins.
May Allah help us fast the day of Ashura, and accept from us all!
I truly long to see Allah...

"We often find ourselves engaged in endless discussions about the bleak state of our Ummah and rarely, if ever, offer hope for improvement. This leaves our audiences disheartened and contributes to a generation of frustrated individuals who struggle to move toward reform and change."

Do not forget to include your brethren in Jenin in your Duas (supplications).
O Allah, save our brothers and sisters in Jenin from the plots of their enemies.
O Allah, spare us from being among those who failed them, and use us to champion the oppressed and honor Islam.
O Allah, they are weak, so strengthen them; they are besieged, so relieve them of distress. By Your grace, appoint for them a protector and a helper.
Reform and change have been a duty for every Muslim since the Qur'an descended on Mohammad (peace & blessings of Allah upon him):
[Arise and Warn. Al-Muddather 2]
The call to reform and change preceded the call to prayer by ten years, the call to Zakat and fasting by fifteen years, and the call to Hajj by eighteen years.

Allah has entrusted you with the responsibility of caring for and safeguarding your children. He will hold you accountable for this. So, is it befitting for you to take them, on this Eid Holiday, to destinations where they will be exposed to immoral sights, where corrupt influences will be imprinted upon their souls?

Dear Readers,
We know that you are eagerly awaiting your Eid present from us, and this Al-Adha Eid, we will not disappoint you!
Your gift is a new series by Professor Salah Soltan, based on his captivating and highly relevant book, "Surat Al-Kahf: Methodologies of Reform and Change." The first part will be published on the day of Eid, with subsequent parts released every Saturday.
The series explores the profound question: Does Islam demand that we charge forward with the unwavering strength of Omar Ibn Al-Khattab, fearlessly promoting what is right and denouncing what is wrong, in every situation? Can we summon Omar’s unparalleled courage and strength, despite the vast expanse of 14 centuries that separate us? How can we act like Omar when, during the time of his rule, Islam controlled the civilized world, while today Islam finds itself besieged from every angle?
This is an Eid gift like no other, crafted exclusively for you, our esteemed readers.
A reminder to us all 📣📣 myself included, to fast the Day of Arafa tomorrow, Tuesday. Smokers, by Allah do not miss this grand opportunity for a mere smoke! Those who have a celebration or a trip, delay it for your own sake, so Allah may bless you. How can you miss the opportunity of this day regarding which the Prophet said "Fast the Day of Arafah, for indeed I anticipate that Allah will forgive (the sins) of the year after it, and the year before it."?!!!
Supplicate during it amply, as the Prophet Peace and Blessings be upon him said “The best supplication is that on the day of ‘Arafa.” Pray for yourselves and for the weak and needy Muslims, and for Islam, that Allah may increase its honor and defy its enemies.
Donate generously, look out for the poor, feed those who are fasting so you would earn the same reward they do, restore broken relationships and be crafty in your Bir (care and obedience) towards your parents. And during all that remember: “…Indeed, the mercy of Allah is close to those who do good” (Qur’an Translated Meaning 7:56)
Oh how in need we are of Allah’s Mercy in this life; that He may be with us and help us stay firm in the face of the war against our religion and innate nature; that through his Mercy our children stay safe, and we are not afflicted with someone who does not fear Him nor has mercy on us.
And may Allah Almighty have mercy on us in the Akhirah (hereafter), when there is only heaven or hellfire.
May Allah help us all to worship Him
His propensity for learning dignified him, his susceptibility to evil whispers humiliated him, and his ability to repent revived him.

Once, Alexinus of Elis asked one of the philosophers, a sophistical question, "Have you left off beating your father?" The philosopher's response was simply, "I have not beaten him, and I have not left off." This problematic question is known as a "loaded question" or a "complex question"; it poses an implicit or explicit presupposition that the person being questioned is likely to disagree with, and is phrased in a way that pressures the person being questioned to give a reply that confirms this problematic assumption. This is known in logic as: “The Fallacy of Begging the Question”.......
